A glowing fire….
Sitting in the garden towards the end of lock down the 27th may in front of a roaring fire, I am a very lucky person, but today has been a particularly magical day and want to put it into print both so I remember and for the future if my kids ever read this blog!
I have for weeks been trying to get my daughter to go out on a bike ride [ as its lockdown and there is not much else to do], but its always meet with lots of no, no, how far are we going blah blah blah and often just no I just don’t want to go.
Somehow however most days we do go but yesterday no way on and on and I just gave up defeated and I got really annoyed with her but achieved nothing we did not go for a bike ride but she did promise me tomorrow we will go early…!!!!
well we did get up early this morning and hit the trails and it is the following comment I won’t to record for me and her before it is forgotten in the mass of time we speed through with 2 young children….
cycling along she turned to me and said I am so glad your grandfather bought to the bungalow he did, this is such a lovely day…..but bummer he did not buy a beach hut!
That one line filled me with so much warmth and happiness I cried, it won’t mean much to many people only me and my dad, but oh it melted my heart,,,,,,the story around this would take ages to explain and would not be interesting to anyone but my daughter but I know what its all about and I record it hear for you my gorgeous daughter to read in some distant time.
well its late and bedtime beckons for you both but just to say every moment I have ever spent with you and your brother has been super special, I would do anything for you and cannot believe my good fortune, I am eternally grateful that both came into my life, who knows where you came from but I love you always forever sweet dreams to both of you xxx
